Among a flurry of moves the New York Yankees made Thursday involving the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, one jumped off the page: Right-handed pitcher Carlos Lagrange placed on the seven-day injured list. Lagrange is the Yankees’ No. 4-ranked prospect according to MLB Pipeline. He has spent the last month transitioning from the starting rotation to the bullpen […]
Other than the Comets’ low-scoring defeat, it was a productive day with a lot of offense in the Dodgers’ minor league system. Player of the day While the winning hit came from elsewhere, the Drillers went only as far as Zyhir Hope could take them, with the cleanup-hitting outfielder delivering a four-hit performance, including a […]
Happy Friday A’s fans, Earlier this week, the Athletics began a six-game stretch at home by losing two of three to the two-time defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers.

Good morning everyone and happy Friday! Last night, the Mariners completed a sweep of the Angels in a 1-0 series finale win thanks to another dominant performance from Bryce Miller, who took a no-hitter into the 7th inning.

For a team where the workload management goals might be extending from get to October to get through October , it seemed like a response worth filing away. The post Rest, workload management as necessary as potential pitching upg...
Every MLB draft seems to feature one high school pitcher who separates himself from the rest of the prep class. In 2026, that pitcher appears to be Gio Rojas. The Florida prep left-hander has been one of the premier amateur arms in the country for several years, and evaluators from every major outlet view him […]
It’s been a dream of a past week for Owen Carey, who is showing power we’ve never seen from him before while maintaining an lengthening hitting streak.

The New York Mets (36-51) return from a brief stint in Canada to face their division rivals, the Atlanta Braves (50-35). The Mets, if you can believe it, actually took two out of three from the first place Braves at Citi Field in June. You can probably believe this, but it’s the last time the […]
With a little tweak to the information available to this feature, I don’t always have final data at the time I’m writing. A hat tip and a thank you to Al who has taken on a little more work in helping me produce this by cleaning up the numbers in the morning. Unfortunately, that doesn’t […]

The Orioles are rapidly approaching the point where they need to go on a stretch of solid baseball to re-establish themselves as real contenders for the wild card. Between now and the All-Star break is the time where they are going to need to do it. Inching along at 5-4 might drag it out for […]

After running their losing streak to seven games on Wednesday, the Yankees, and us frankly, got some respite on Thursday with an off day.
